PatternBright fluorescence indicative of kin-18 promoter activity was observed in the pharynx, intestine, and a structure near the anus likely to be the anal sphincter. In addition, the H-shaped or excretory cell and several ring neurons also demonstrated kin-18 promoter activity. In the pharynx, cells with kin-18 promoter activity include the pharyngeal muscle of the metacorpus, the isthmus, and the terminal bulb. The pharynge-intestinal valve between the pharynx and intestine also exhibited kin-18 promoter activity.

RemarkWorms expressing lacZ with a nuclear localization signal from the kin-18 promoter corroborated the GFP expression pattern observed.
